Hi Gary!

I recommend you open up the device once more to check to see if there is poor connection with the fingerprint sensor. Try disconnecting and reconnecting it. Then restart the device before using it. You should also check for home button flex. That is a common issue and can cause Touch ID to function improperly. Hope all goes well!

Thanks for the reply,

Are you referring to one of the four flex cable under the square meter plate ?

by

Yeah the vertical rectangle connector which is the home button extension cable that runs through the back metal plate behind screen.

Also the home button cable coming from the home button itself.

All cables are intact and connected still no Touch ID
